Brock Osweiler completed 22-of-38 passes for 193 yards, zero touchdowns and an interception in the Broncos' 27-11, Week 16 loss to the Redskins.

He also lost a fumble, pathetically letting the ball dribble forward after appearing to evade a sack. Osweiler was dispiritingly bad, never coming particularly close to leading the Broncos to a touchdown drive until deep into garbage time. As expected, last week's relief appearance in Indianapolis was a complete and utter fluke. We would expect Paxton Lynch to be under center for next week's finale against the Chiefs.

Brock Osweiler is the Broncos' Week 16 quarterback against the Redskins.

This confirms previous reports. Paxton Lynch (ankle) isn't healthy enough to start after a limited week of practice. Osweiler is coming off one of his better games in Week 15 but isn't a streaming option. Sun, Dec 24, 2017 08:32:00 AM

This isn't a surprise after coach Vance Joseph confirmed Paxton Lynch (questionable, ankle) isn't fully healthy. Osweiler is coming off one of his better games last week and will make another spot start. The Broncos will have to wait until Week 17 to get another look at Lynch. Fri, Dec 22, 2017 07:11:00 PM

Siemian injured his shoulder in Week 15. It's the same shoulder he had operated on last offseason, but it's a different injury. Per NBC Denver, he is dealing with a "damaged posterior capsule. Although Siemian's quarterback guru Gary Kubiak is taking on a larger role in the Broncos' front office, he's unlikely to be a legitimate contender for starting duties in 2018, the final year of his rookie contract.

Taylor was thought to need surgery on both hips, but he is only expected to need one side repaired. He will likely still be brought back as an exclusive rights free agent, but he could end up missing the entire offseason program. Taylor caught 13 passes for 142 yards this season.
